Enlight Interactive has announced "Circus Empire," an upcoming circus simulation game.

"Players will be able to design their own circus in three dimensions, complete with trapeze artists, clowns, lion tamers and a variety of other performers, each with their own distinct personality. Circus Empire is scheduled to release this May for the PC at a suggested price of $19.99.

"With Circus Empire, the dream of joining the circus will soon be at your fingertips," said Trevor Chan of Enlight Interactive. "The level of customization lets families choose all the performers and performances in the circus as you tour the world, entertaining thousands of people on different continents."

Circus Empire lets players customize their very own circus, from hiring and training the performers to scheduling tour dates to watching the show in beautiful, realistic 3D. With more than 70 performers, including acrobats, tightrope walkers, motorcyclists and a variety of animals, players can choose from hundreds of different performance moves to make their circus a unique entertainment experience. As they build their circus act, players can follow the story campaign as their circus tours across North America, Asia and Europe, bringing joy and excitement to thousands of spectators. Circus Empire isn't just about great visuals, either; it's an in-depth simulation, complete with all the details of running a circus, including hiring, training, scheduling and even personnel and financial management."
